Description

CPU Usage Overlay is the quickest way to check your CPU usage. Simply tap the widget and a process list will be overlaid on top of your screen. This allows you to view your cpu use as you go about using your apps.

This widget is a shortcut to the "Show CPU Usage" option under Settings->Developer Settings. It works by starting the same service that Developer Settings launches. As a caveat, this widget will not work on any device that does not already support showing cpu usage.

Enjoy!

Note: This is only a widget. Therefore, you will need to go to the *Widgets* section of your launcher and drag it to your homescreen in order to use it.

Keywords: CPU Usage, Cpu Monitor, Task Monitor, Task List, Show CPU

Well... Considering the fact that all this app does is enable the overlay built into the phone's original developers options, this app is nothing special. Possibly usefull for those who dont know how to enable the hidden dev options.

Installed it...but never found the shortcut... Took a chance as there were no reviews for it. Maybe the link is there somewhere, but I couldn't find it. Displaying the CPU usage is supported on the tablet though, so I just turned it on; I didn't know about that. Thanks!

Unlike other tools, CPU Monitor Advanced FREE is an expert technical app which records historical information about processes running on your device. You can configure the length of the information capture. You can store and review up to 100 captures.

CPU Monitor Advanced FREE will even automatically begin recording information when an application exceed the set thresholds for CPU over a specified time interval.

You can use the information stored over time to identify trends in application behavior and to identify processes that utilize too many resources over a period of time.

CPU Monitor Advanced Edition is capable of manual and automatic captures or snapshots. The app can automatically start a snapshot capture of what processes are running and what amount of resources they are consuming.

The app also allows you to graph each process captured in the snapshot and you can graph the CPU, the memory and the battery drain.

The app also allows you to kill the process as well as O/S processes if your phone is rooted, otherwise it will kill only user processes.

The app only uses about 4% of the phone's CPU to run in background monitoring mode and about 8% when capturing data.

CPU Monitor Advanced FREE will help you identify processes which slow down your phone over time.

- Process information list(refresh per 5 seconds)View entries: Process label, Process ID, memory usage, CPU usage percentage and the average of CPU percentageProcess records are sorted by the average of CPU percentage with descending order.The commands on the context menu; > Kill process Try to kill the specified process.

> Launch process Launch the related main activity. Each process is not always launched its activity.

About killing processThis tool tries to kill your specified process.Almost processes like system tools or Widget are not killed or re-activate after being killed soon.

If you try to kill process, what is happened...?- You see that the process is disappeared from the list next updating. You may see the related task on the task manager.- Process is not killed and the list leaves the process.- Process is killed, but you will see the process in the list again with another process ID.- Process is killed, but if you try to run it again, you may see the activity still has the information before being killed.

About launching processThe tool try to get the package name from process, and launch the main activity related with the specified process. If the tool fails to launch the activity, you will know it with the toast message, and no activity is invoked.

How to use this tool(recommend)Many processes are running in Android OS. Each application can be switched to another application, and its background application still keeps running. But at the lack of memory situation, Android kills processes automatically for the main activity.The tool makes you to check the system usage of memory, how many processes are running and how amount of memory is consumed by processes. You can check your Android system, and you can notice that there are some applications are not used by you, I recommend you should uninstall these applications. The instant way of killing processes may resolve your device situation in a short time, but I do not recommend the way.

ConclusionI want to make the tool that can be logged with the system information for a long period, for creating the report of system running status. If you have something about using this tool, your great idea, or others, feel free to tell me your opinions!Thanks a lot!

==Developers==This tool is perfect for developers debugging apps. See your system CPU usage at a glance, without an annoying popup or overlay interfering with your app usage. Grab the PRO version to set the update interval as small as 100ms!

==Gamers==Micro CPU Monitor is ideal for use while playing games - the 1 pixel screen footprint means you won't miss any of the action!

==Battery Saving Gurus==This CPU monitor is a great way to keep an eye on your battery drain. No matter what app you're using, the Micro CPU Monitor can tell you at a glance which applications are chewing up your CPU cycles.

---Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)---Q. I've got a quad core device. Why don't I see all four cores being used?

A. Android tries to optimise the CPU usage, by shutting down cores when they're not needed. Your phone will rarely use all 4 cores. Try downloading a CPU Stress Test app, and you'll see the four cores then :)

---Permissions---+ SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW - Required to create a system-wide overlay for the monitor on edge of screen+ RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED - Required for the auto-start feature+ INTERNET & ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE - Used for error reporting, and anonymous usage reporting using Google Analytics.

SetCPU is a tool for changing the CPU settings on a rooted Android phone or tablet. SetCPU works with a great variety of Android devices and ROMs, including the HTC One series, Samsung Galaxy series, and Nexus devices. You're under control: SetCPU can improve your performance, save battery, or both!

Automate SetCPU with profiles! SetCPU allows you to set up powerful profiles to change your settings under certain conditions, such as what app is running, when the phone is asleep or charging, when the battery level drops below a certain point, when the phone's temperature is too high, or during certain times of day. See the screenshots for examples of how you might set up profiles.

SetCPU also includes a "voltage control" menu, available to certain devices with custom kernels that support it, to control undervolting to save even more battery. Undervolting is only available for certain kernels.

3.1.0Hey guys! It's good to be back ;) I have been very busy with school for the past year. 3.1.0 is mostly a bug fix release for some standing issues, but expect much more frequent updates from now on.

- Added SUPERUSER permission.- Fixed a bug where action bar menu items would sometimes not appear for the profiles menu.- Fixed a bug where voltage items would appear in reverse with some custom kernels.- Added an open source licenses menu item in About.

Permissions:Root: SetCPU needs root permissions to modify the CPU speed and other settings.

Read logs: is used for efficient app condition checking. That is currently all it's used for.

Start at boot: SetCPU will start a profiles service at boot, if enabled. It also sets default boot settings, if enabled. SetCPU does not run in the background if profiles are not enabled, and becomes inactive after settings, if any, are applied.

Wake lock: This prevents the phone from sleeping while stress testing and benchmarking.

Write external storage: SetCPU needs to read from and write to the SD card or internal storage to back up profiles.

Read phone state: The "in call" condition needs this to determine if the user is making a phone call or not, and trigger the profile if the user wants to.

As the #1 Android professional phone temperature monitoring and controlling app that detects and closes heavy resource consuming apps to reduce CPU usage and prevent overheating.

Features( Totally Free and No Ads ):

✓Real-time temperature monitoringMonitors and logs phone temperature in real time, and displays temperature change curves.✓Dynamic overheating app detectionAnalyzes CPU usage dynamically, and detects apps that are overusing CPU to determine the cause for phone overheating.✓One tap to cool downAllow you to close overheating apps with one simple tap to reduce CPU usage and cool down your phone.✓Overheating preventionCloses apps that are likely to cause overheating, and prevents the phone temperature from rising.

Tips:

★Why does my phone overheat? Constantly high CPU usage is mostly the reason why your phone overheats. Some apps tend to use the CPU for a very long time in the background, which causes your phone to produce excessive heat.★How dose Cooler Master work? Cooler Master is designed to monitor the CPU usage of your phone, and detect apps with high CPU usage so you can close them★Why does my phone get so hot? It’s normal for your phone to get hot when you are using complicated apps, watching video clips, or while you recharge it. In such cases, just put your phone somewhere cool and ventilated, and the temperature should drop soon.

Widget that displays your device's CPU usage per core. Additionally activities to view a detailed "top" style list of CPU usage per process and settings to tune the widget colors.

Instructions:

1. Install the app2. Select the widget (from your list of widgets, or long-pressing on your home screen for older Android versions)3. The settings are automatically opened after adding the widget; tune any colors and press save

After the widget is active:

- Tap on it to view the CPU usage list per process (back key to exit)- Tap on the settings button for settings (save or back key exits back to list)

CPU Monitor application provides information about all running applications on the device. Gets the CPU usage for each process. The data collected in real-time configurable interval (1-10 seconds).

In the PRO version, you can choose any applications to be monitored.

CPU usage is displayed on the notification bar and on the widget.

After exceeding a predetermined threshold level (10%), the color in the list and on the widget changes from green through yellow, to red.

Compared to the application of competitive, CPU Monitor is much better, because it uses only about 1% of the CPU to work in monitoring mode in the background, and about 4-10% during standard operation.

Usemon is the only app on google play that can monitor GPU usage (currently adreno only).

I have really missed graphs of system status from android. I wanted something like you have in task manager on windows, or widgets on my KDE desktop. When I found nothing like that, I decided to write one, here it is.

Usemon is a simple application for monitoring usage of system resources. It displays graphs of CPU, RAM, and network usage. (For dual and quad core devices per core stats are supported.) No root needed. It is extremely lightweight, because it gets these data directly from the kernel. It can show permanent statusbar notifications of these too (when enabled). It support devices running android 4.0 and higher, thanks to that it integrates well into the holo themed system.

Features:- Monitoring CPU, RAM, network, disk and GPU (adreno only) usage- Every data is logged - If the screen is off, battery usage is minimized- It can show network download, and upload rate separately- Widgets are included, they are capable of displaying CPU, RAM or network usage- Statusbar notifcations you can check anytime- Colored graphs makes it easy to identify witch graph represent the information you are looking for

1、This app can get the cpu temperature(not the battery temperature)2、This app can get the cpu usage. 3、It can get cpu frequency4、It can get the battery info5、It can monitor the cpu temperature,usage and frequency change6、It can get cpu info7、cpu temperature pressure test

*Getting the exact cpu temperature depends on the linux kernal,otherwise it will show you the temperature by algorithm

3C CPU Manager is the must-have CPU control app for root users, replacing the well known app "CPU Tweaker" created following popular requests. It adds GPU and hexa/octa-core support as well as numerous other improvements.

Introducing TinycoreTinycore is a system monitor app that makes your status-bar just a little more useful by adding a CPU or RAM indicator to it. The indicator is a few pixels high line which is by default added to the top-right corner of the status-bar.

FunctionalityTinycore features a highly customizable experience, minimalistic and innovative Holo design and is completely designed to be lightweight (low system footprint). With Tinycore monitoring your devices CPU or RAM becomes much easier and interesting.

FeaturesTinycore is fully compatible with multicore devices, runs on Android 2.2+, is completely free but some advanced features can be unlocked using in-app purchase.

FAQQ: What does the weight option?A: If you have more than one monitor the weight options specifies how the layout is divided between the monitors. For example one monitor can take up 70% of the available space and another monitor the remaining 30%.

Q: I purchased the pro version but is does not activate.A: Quit the app and restart it with a working internet connection, this should fix your problem. If you have still problems make sure your purchase was successful.

Q: Does Tinycore run when the screen is off?A: No, Tinycore keeps a low system footprint and stops monitoring.

If you don't know what root permissions are, you probably don't need this app.

No-frills CPU Control is a tool you can use on your rooted [1] device to quickly set the CPU frequencies and governor to use.It allows you to use the highest frequency your phone supports and gain some precious FPS in your preferred game, or go down to the lowest frequency and gain some more juice when your phone is sitting idle.All of this without any memory footprint or services running in the background!

It has been reported working on a large number of rooted [1] devices from HTC, Samsung, Motorola, LG, Huawei, ZTE, Oppo and so on! Even Kindle and Nook Color!

Unfortunately, it does NOT work on Flytouch tablets, Zenithink zt180, HaiPad M7/Tabtech M7 or fake HTC/Samsung clones. Sorry about that, but you knew what you were buying when you did... didn't you?

Is your device supported? You need ROOT permissions and you'll probably need to be running a CUSTOM ROM (an example is the famous CyanogenMod) with kernel frequency scaling enabled. If you are unsure... just install the app and see for yourself!If you need a custom ROM for your phone, the best places to find one are XDA [http://forum.xda-developers.com], MoDaCo [http://android.modaco.com/] or similar forums.

Be wary of the frequencies you select! Your phone may lock or become unresponsive if it doesn't like extreme values, but -hey- better safe than sorry: even though No-frills CPU Control allows you to choose if you want to apply the settings on boot, it comes with an extra "safety valve" too! If the device doesn't shut down (or reboot) in a clean way, it will not apply the settings, avoiding those nasty boot-loops you may have had with other overclocking apps. Please keep in mind that apps like QuickBoot are as quick as they are unsafe…

FEATURES:- Easy GUI to set frequencies, governor and i/o scheduler- "safety valve" to avoid boot-loops in case of unsafe settings (more info in the homepage)- Stats screen to see the effective usage of frequencies

No-frills CPU Control is open source under Apache 2.0 license. You can find the source code, more informations and you can ask for questions on its project post directly on XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911917

SUPPORT: If you have any problems, before you write a negative comment, write an email or go to the homepage to get answers.

If I don't reply you or solve your problem, then go ahead and post a negative comment.

HINT: If you can't find the email of the developer, use the "Send CPU data" feature from the main screen, instead, and add your questions.

Starting with version 1.21 the app has a new look & feel matching the new Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and has dropped support for older Android releases (1.6 and 2.0). Don't worry! There's a new app, No-frills CPU Control CLASSIC which will always have the same features as the classic app with the old look & feel!

[1]: if you don't know what a ROOTED device is, you can find a pretty good explanation here: [http://www.androidauthority.com/rooting-for-dummies-a-beginners-guide-to-root-your-android-phone-or-tablet-10915/]

CPU tuner gives you control over the power consumption of your android device.Its prime purpose is to be a battery saver and to save as much battery as possible, but it can be used to overclock at the same time (if the kernel of your device supports it).

Depending on triggers (based on the battery) different profiles are loaded. Each trigger has different profiles depending of the the state of your phone (if it is locked, on battery, on power or a phone call is being done).

Configurations (i.e. a set of trigger and profiles) can be loaded based on the time of the day and the day of the week. This allows you to set a different behaviour during the night or the weekend.

In praise of CyanogenMod... ;)

Then describe your issue (and if possible attach a logcat output along with the zip file from the report).

A note on permissions: Yes there are a lot and potentially dangerous permissions needed, but cpu tuner does not request the network communication permission which means that cpu tuner cannot send any information back. Further more cpu tuner is opensource so you can browse the code and check....
